Back to the boogaloo sound on Sound Travels for Thursday. Amazing and funky sounds from NYC. 60's era sounds from second and third-generation Puerto Ricans and latinos as they integrate, integrating the raw funk of their black conterparts. One part guajira jazz with a rhythm & blues backbeat; music built for dancefloors. If you missed the set, here it is...
